riak-0.4
This release changes the storage backend API in a backward-
incompatible fashion, invalidating old stores. However, translation
from the old form to the new is not difficult. Please feel free to
contact the Riak developers if you need assistance.
tests:
- an eunit harness which is run via "make test"
- unit tests cover over 40% of code in riak source
riak_api:
- removed this gen_server entirely, allowing shorter request paths
riak_bucket:
- default bucket properties are now configurable via riak.erlenv
riak_client:
- now directly starts remote FSMs
riak_ring_manager:
- the ring state is now in an ets table instead of gen_server state
(for improved speed with many readers and occasional writes)
riak_sup:
- more OTP-friendly child specifications
riak_keys_fsm:
- a new and improved way of providing a list of a bucket's keys
riak_eventer:
- eventers can specify a pattern, and only matching events will be sent
general:
- storage backends are now aware of {Bucket,Key} instead of just a hash
- many small improvements made in the course of expanding test coverage
- initialization work in core FSMs deferred to reduce start() blocking
